Im not sure why one would want the derlin, too light.

kenchan 12-19-2011 02:40 PM

derlin is good as it doesnt get affected by heat or cold.

I understand that but its just too light. Maybe if it had some kind of metal core to add weight.

To get a better fit between the boot and the shift knob I cut out the top of a water bottle and replaced the factory ring that is used to hold up the boot. The smaller ring makes the boot sit higher on the shifter and makes the shift knob look more flush with the boot. There is no need for the O rings if you decide to do this. Here are some pics.

My custom one-of-a-kind boot ring, lol

I will order one now if yes!!

Unfortunately, we have decided not to mass produce these shift knobs in the white delrin.

But we do have ONE in white that we machined. If you are really interested in getting one in white, give us a call at 562-801-1808 and we can sell you the one we have. :tup:

Think we may need to have them revise the quality checks. Inspector #5 might have been napping when they put it in the plastic bag...

Yea I just called them... They sent us a honda one....

They gave me an RMA number, but now I will have to wait till they get the old one back before they will send me a new one...

And its Christmas time too, so going to the post office right now is about as much fun and putting cigars out on your eyeball...
